They are everywhere and they are good for you, complex carbs.
How do you eat less carbs for breakfast? I can't seem to get away from bad carbs at breakfast.
Thanks so much for your helpful ideas. I do know this will be a life changing way of eating and appreciate very much your help in doing this. Thanks again.
Any balanced diet and exercise will help with weight loss. High protein and lower carbs are a decent idea. We do need some carbs, but a lot of people have lost a lot of weight by simply cutting anything white.... flour, bread, sugar, tortillas, rice, etc. Eat the healthiest food available.
The short of it is, eating right, eating often but watching the caloric intake, drinking plenty of water and getting plenty of exercise.....
It would help if I had a list of foods to go grocery shopping for, and what I could or couldn't eat.
Carbs are necessary for energy production, but there are 2 types of carbs - simple and complex. Simple carbs include things like bread, potatoes, white rice, pasta, etc. Simple carbs cause blood glucose levels to spike when we eat them. Complex carbs are those contained in whole grains (fiber), vegetables, etc. They take longer to digest so don't increase glucose levels as much.
I was a cumpulsive eater before i got clean, but not always, around the 10th day my appetite came back, im 50 days of opiates after 4+year of opiates and maintnance, i crave sweets, and simple carbs.
Dieting does not take a lot of starving, it takes a lot of changes. Water, exercising, counting calories, light on the simple carbs, like white bread, white rice. Plenty of fruits and vegetables, lean meats. You can make these changes all at once or one at a time. Whichever is easier for you.
Give it at least three weeks to see your pants fit differently. You can do it. Do it for your health!
Eating more protein and fewer simple carbs are good. White beans, such as white kidney beans, chicpeas, aduzi beans, and other beans are good because they're high in protein and also in fibers that help control blood sugar and cholesterol. That's a start. To get more complete, try to find a holistic nutritionist.
However, I just noticed in this months issue of runners world some great low fat recipes that are unusually high in carbs. For example, on page 48, they list the breakfast of champions, 1 cup oatmeal topped with 1 Tbsp honey, 2 Tbsp dried cherries, 2 Tbsp walnut haves, 8 oz of plain kefir, and 1 medium banana. This supplies 600 calories and 90G of carbohydrate. No bad for breakfast. (But watch your calories if you aren't burning that many).
Congratulations on the 45 lbs weight loss. Did you have trouble controlling your appetite on that small amount of food?
I have recently been diagnosed with pre-diabetes, which could turn into full blown type II diabetes. I'm on a mission to lose about 23 lbs and so far, it's not going very well.
You have to maintain your diet, in order to keep the weight off and to maintain your blood sugar levels.
Carbs under 40 sounds extremely restrictive.
ll need to eat more fat and protein along with whole grain slowly digestible carbs. Avoid highly process carbs and cakes, candies, cookies - things which break down easily and will raise your sugar..
Make sure you put fat with your carbs as it also slows down the absorption.
Use natural fats as much as possible. Ie butter or cream in your potatoes, cream in your coffee. Do not use low fat foods. Regular fat cheese and yogurt, etc. Eat the fat from your meats.
I gave a comment here and the post shows I commented but I don't see it. Maybe it will show up some day but the website seems to be having a host of problems. Basically, carbs aren't all created equal, and calories are not your best source of tracking weight. Calories are one factor, but how well and how quickly you metabolize your food into sugar for energy is more determinative, as foods that turn quickly into sugar have to be burned off quickly or they store quickly as fat.
Did this person tell you to cut all carbs, or just simple carbs? Vegetables are carbs. Fruit are carbs. Whole grains are carbs. Beans are a combination of protein and carbs. I think what most would advise is to avoid white flour, bagels, sweets, anything that turns to sugar quickly in your system. That's why you're craving sugar -- carbs are necessary for energy, and sugar is quick energy but also stores as fat if not burned immediately. Same with processed carbs.
Google Glycemic Index [GI] and understand the difference between good carbs [complex] and bad carbs [simple]. Carbohydrates [simple carbs] that break down quickly during digestion and release sugar rapidly into the bloodstream have a high GI; carbohydrates that break down more slowly, releasing sugar more gradually into the bloodstream, have a low GI. As asok mentioned, watch the carbs. Carbs are wreak havoc to a t2 diabetics glucose level.
